Datadog Docs

Use the smallest source that answers the question, then stop. Cite the page URL you used.

1. search_datadog_documentation is available → Search.
2. The question is an API endpoint or request schema, and search did not answer it → API.
3. Otherwise → Page.

Search

search_datadog_documentation (MCP toolset documentation, no extra permission) returns at most 10 source passages with links. It does not write an answer. It supports English, French, Japanese, Korean, and Spanish.

Call read_datadog_documentation with one source URL or document id only when a passage is not enough. It returns long pages in parts; stop at the part that answers.

If the tool is not in your tool list, skip this section. Enabling the toolset is a separate setup task.

API

Pup reads the live API reference and needs no auth. Commands, smallest first:

pup docs api <topic> --operations
pup docs api <topic>

The operations list is the small result. Fetch pup docs api <topic> <operation> only when you need that operation's request schema: the page includes every sample. Skip pup docs api with no topic.

Page

https://docs.datadoghq.com/llms.txt is the section index. Open the one section index it links to, then fetch one page by appending .md:

https://docs.datadoghq.com/monitors/llms.txt
https://docs.datadoghq.com/monitors.md

Documentation is served from docs.datadoghq.com. Site-specific values, such as API endpoints, are selected on that page.
